Using genomic data to infer historic population dynamics of nonmodel organisms
Genome sequence data are now being routinely obtained from many nonmodel organisms.
These data contain a wealth of information about the demographic history of the populations …

On the importance of being structured: instantaneous coalescence rates and human evolution—lessons for ancestral population size inference?
Most species are structured and influenced by processes that either increased or reduced
gene flow between populations. However, most population genetic inference methods …

The confounding effect of population structure on Bayesian skyline plot inferences of demographic history
Many coalescent-based methods aiming to infer the demographic history of populations
assume a single, isolated and panmictic population (ie a Wright-Fisher model). While this …

The confounding effects of population structure, genetic diversity and the sampling scheme on the detection and quantification of population size changes
The idea that molecular data should contain information on the recent evolutionary history of
populations is rather old. However, much of the work carried out today owes to the work of …
